Textbook about Emotional Trauma

Treating Emotional Trauma with Chinese Medicine, by Dr. Holman (published by Singing Dragon) comprehensively explains the Chinese Medicine diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of the impact of emotional trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).  

This book integrates the multi-diagnostic and treatment methods existing in Chinese medicine, and includes diagnostics such as facial, pulse, tongue, and channel palpation.  Treatments include acupuncture, Chinese herbal formulas, qigong, shamanic drumming, and lifestyle/nutritional recommendations.  Many types of emotional traumas and their manifestations are presented, including fear, anxiety, panic attacks, PTSD, depression, mood swings, insomnia, and sensory organ impairment.  Preventing the impact of future emotional trauma is discussed.

Emotional trauma can upset the harmony of the body and reduce the body's ability to heal and regulate itself. Once the traumas are identified and treated, the body will function at an optimum level and will respond to treatments for other conditions present.

This is the first book to combine facial diagnosis, shamanic drumming, acupuncture, and Chinese herbal formulas.

Rich in case studies and self-care techniques, the text presents ancient wisdom alongside modern research, bridging Chinese and Western medical approaches to address trauma.  Dr. Holman weaves the information into an easy-to-read, enjoyable format that is accessible to the layperson yet rich with practical treatment gems for the seasoned practitioner.  The text inspires anyone interested in the treatment of or personal resolution of Emotional Trauma to shine brightly with a clear heart.
